Reminds me what my mother would every year. She would decide who she was going to do it to. She then procedded to wrap the gift in so many ways, that you would not believe. One year she nailed my brother. I can’t remember how many rolls of TP she used. About half way through the wrapping she put a note with a asprin in it. Can’t remember what the note said. After my brother finished opening it up. All there was a note telling him where his gift was. HE TOOK THE ASPRIN!!!!

My mother was the master at wrapping presents. She used to tape every edge of the box to seal it, the wrap it 3-4 time with various papers and in multiple boxes.

A few years ago I got even. I crated her Christmas present, glued and nailed it shut on all edges, then wrapped it in the prettiest foil paper I could find. She had to take a crowbar and a circular saw to open it.

She hasn’t given me a wrapped present since. 8-)
